I had to go and retrieve the wing....in a 3D Printed disguise of course!




All good fun!

Keukpa

Ha Ha love it!!! Thanks for picking it up. I hope you talked in a funny accent to?!?!

Man I need to come back with my GoPro. The AXN is well on its way now so one day soon I shall return for another fun filled Saturday. Will try not to crash this time.... not promising though!!

Yeah, I was like

"Chocks away ginger...good flight what...one has come to collect ones clapped out old girl....Didn't one just drop a clangour with ones flight?"

But yeah, the GoPro over there would be amazing! :D

Am I the only one who dares question the wisdom of this video?

Correct me if I am wrong but isn't Lincoln Cathedral in a heavily built up city centre area?
Correct me also if I am wrong but wasn't the "landing" on the roof of the Cathedral really just a crash? Fortunately cathedrals are relatively crash resistant to model aircraft. Other objects are not so blessed.

Flak expected.

Electrotor I think the cathedral must have moved or something because the flying I saw beforehand was perfectly fine, nothing to suggest any danger at all.

I demand you send a letter to Lincolnshire Council requesting an explanation for the unwarranted and undeserved criminal damage to TeamFTPs airframe by the Cathedral and an assurance that it won't happen next time.

:o as if the council playing dodgeball with cathedrals isn't enough, you're expecting them to fire live ammunition too - it's only an RC plane! Won't someone think of the go pro??

Teamftp

You throw in the bait and they bite  ;D ;D

Happy fishing  :laugh: :laugh:

It was all perfectly safe up until the point the Cathedral moved. God works in mysterious ways.

Anyways I am a Catholic and apparently I am now up for a Papal knighthood for a bit of protestant kicking..... Sir TeamFTP?!?!

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Flak given, all in good fun and jest ;D ;D

Talking about fishing.... the Brayford pool got left out a bit...you could've approached it flying along the canal, Dam busterstylee from the Green Dragon nice and low beneath the High Bridge cafe...... Yeah, I wanted to see the yatching set lazing around on their deck loungers with their Martinis. Also flying up the front street and through the Stonebow would've been a hell of a stunt and one which I'm sure Peter Levy would've wanted footage of........oh no sorry, it's not in Hull is it?
G.J.    ;)

I've wanted to do the Brayford pool for a while, and down the canal to the pyewype pub!

Would be awesome!

Ah yes, The Pywype... I met several members of the cast of 'Hi-de-hi' there once...glory days!

There was no crash in this video??!! Was there?

electrotor

Well at least the flak is light (hearted).  :D

Teamftp I think I know the reason for your crash, sorry landing, on the cathedral roof. Your model is RC and the cathedral is Anglican. You obviously picked the wrong denomination to fly over. I suggest that next time you try Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral or London Westminster Cathedral. You will be safe then - Deo volente.

;D

Now the Pyewype pub is easy as for the brayford now that might need a bit more planning....
